That's so cool!  I looked at your "first light" clip.  Nice choice of words.

I am not sure I understand why you have the diode in series with the coil output.  Can you explain that?

@Tinselkoala,


Why not just spin a diametric tube instead of a multi magnet rotor if the circuit triggers from both poles?


This project got really exciting very fast. I'm deeply impressed by your super speedy progress, and have developed a new found respect for MH. The entire electronics pulse motor builder group is soon bound to grow keenly focused on your project development. You're right on the cutting edge!

Thanks for the comments.

Just for fun I could not resist checking....

So this is used as a trigger as to when to pulse the coil, instead of a reed or hall sensor or even a separate trigger coil? Will it drive the coil also? Or is that separate?

Does it fire at tdc or on the approach?

Very cool.
